Mose 5 7
1 Ne Yehowa miaƒe Mawu kplɔ wò yi Ŋugbedodonyigba la dzi, abe ale si wòle wɔwɔ ge kpuie ene la, atsrɔ̃ dukɔ adre siwo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe lolo, eye wòsẽ wu wò. Dukɔ siawoe nye: Hititɔwo, Girgasitɔwo, Amoritɔwo, Kanaantɔwo, Perizitɔwo, Hivitɔwo kple Yebusitɔwo.
When the LORD your God shall bring you into the land where you go to possess it, and shall cast out many nations before you, the Hethite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, seven nations greater and mightier than you;
2 Ne Yehowa, wò Mawu la tsɔ wo de asi na wò be nàtsrɔ̃ wo la, ele be nàtsrɔ̃ wo keŋkeŋ. Mègawɔ nubabla kpli wo alo nàkpɔ nublanui na wo o. Tsrɔ̃ wo keŋkeŋ.
and when the LORD your God shall deliver them up before you, and you shall strike them; then you shall utterly destroy them: you shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them;
3 Mègaɖe srɔ̃ tso wo dome o, eye mègaɖe mɔ viwò ŋutsuwo kple viwò nyɔnuwo naɖe wo vinyɔnuwo kple wo viŋutsuwo o.
neither shall you make marriages with them; your daughter you shall not give to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son.
4 Ne viwòwo ɖe wo viwo la, viwòwo asubɔ woƒe mawuwo godoo. Ekema Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe abi ɖe ŋuwò, eye Yehowa atsrɔ̃ wò kokoko.
For he will turn away your son from following me, that he may serve other gods; so the anger of the LORD would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.
5 Ele be nàmu woƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo, agbã woƒe legbawo, aho woƒe aƒeliwo aƒu anyi, eye nàtɔ dzo woƒe aklamakpakpɛwo,
But you shall deal with them like this: you shall break down their altars, and dash their pillars in pieces, and cut down their Asherim, and burn their engraved images with fire.
6 elabena wò la, dukɔ kɔkɔe nènye, eye wotsɔ wò na Yehowa, wò Mawu la. Etia wò tso xexemedukɔwo katã dome be nànye yeƒe dukɔ tiatia.
For you are a holy people to the LORD your God: The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
7 Etia wò, eye wòkɔ eƒe lɔlɔ̃ ɖe dziwò duu, menye esi nènye dukɔ si lolo wu bubuawo ta o, elabena wòe nye suetɔ kekeake le dukɔwo dome!
The LORD did not set his love on you, nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all peoples:
8 Esi wòlɔ̃ wò kple ale si wòwɔ atam si wòka na tɔgbuiwòwo dzi ta koe. Eya ta wòɖe wò tso kluvinyenye me le Egiptenyigba dzi to eƒe ŋusẽ gã ɖeɖe fia kple nukunu triakɔwo wɔwɔ me.
but because the LORD loves you, and because he would keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, has the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
9 Eya ta nyae bena Yehowa, wò Mawu la nye Mawu nuteƒewɔla. Ewɔa eƒe ŋugbedodowo dzi na dzidzime akpewo, eye wòtsɔa lɔlɔ̃ mavɔ lɔ̃a ame siwo lɔ̃nɛ, eye wowɔa eƒe seawo dzi.
Know therefore that the LORD your God, he is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness with them who love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations,
10 Ke ame siwo léa fui la, woahe to na wo le dukɔwo ŋkume, eye woatsrɔ̃ wo. Eya ŋutɔ ahe to na wo.
and repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him who hates him, he will repay him to his face.
11 Eya ta wɔ ɖe se siwo katã mele tsɔtsɔm na wò egbea la dzi.
You shall therefore keep the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which I command you this day, to do them.
12 Le wò seawo dzi wɔwɔ ta la, Yehowa, wò Mawu la awɔ ɖe eƒe nubabla si wòtsɔ lɔ̃ wò kple fofowòwo la dzi.
It shall happen, because you listen to these ordinances, and keep and do them, that the LORD your God will keep with you the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to your fathers:
13 Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, alɔ̃ wò, ayra wò, eye wòawɔ wò nàzu dukɔ gã aɖe. Ana nàdzi asɔ gbɔ, wò anyigba nanyo nukuwo, eye wò lãwo hã nadzi asɔ gbɔ, ale be wò bli, wain, ami, nyiwo, alẽwo kple gbɔ̃wo asɔ gbɔ ne mieva ɖo anyigba si ŋugbe wòdo na fofowòwo be yeatsɔ na wo la dzi.
and he will love you, and bless you, and multiply you; he will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your livestock and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.
14 Yehowa ayra wò wu dukɔ bubu ɖe sia ɖe le xexea me. Wò ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa dometɔ aɖeke matsi ko o. Woƒe lãwo gɔ̃ hã matsi ko o.
You shall be blessed above all peoples: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your livestock.
15 Gawu la, Yehowa aɖe miaƒe dɔlélewo katã ɖa, eye mana Egiptetɔwo ƒe dɔléle siwo dzi nèɖo ŋkui nyuie la dometɔ aɖeke naɖe fu na wò o. Atsɔ dɔléle siawo katã ada ɖe wò futɔwo dzi!
And the LORD will take away from you all sickness, and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you have seen and which you have known, will he put on you, but he will lay them on all who hate you.
16 Ele be nàtsrɔ̃ dukɔ siwo katã Yehowa, wò Mawu la tsɔ de asi na wò. Mègakpɔ nublanui na wo o, eye mègasubɔ woƒe mawuwo o. Ne ègbe toɖoɖo, eye nèwɔ nu siawo la, dzɔgbevɔ̃e ava dziwò.
You shall consume all the peoples whom the LORD your God shall deliver to you; your eye shall not pity them: neither shall you serve their gods; for that will be a snare to you.
17 Ɖewohĩ miabia mia ɖokuiwo be, “Dukɔ siawo sesẽ wu mí, aleke míate ŋu awɔ anya wo ɖa?”
If you shall say in your heart, "These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?"
18 Ke migavɔ̃ wo o! Miɖo ŋku nu si Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la wɔ Farao kple Egiptenyigba blibo la
you shall not be afraid of them: you shall well remember what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt;
19 miekpɔ kple miawo ŋutɔ miaƒe ŋkuwo, xaxa sesẽwo, nukunuwo kple dzesi gãwo, asi sesẽ kple abɔ si wòdo ɖe dzi si Yehowa, wò Mawu la tsɔ kplɔ wò do goe la dzi la dzi nyuie. Yehowa, wò Mawu la awɔ nenema ke na ame siwo vɔ̃m nèle fifia.
the great trials which your eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the LORD your God brought you out: so shall the LORD your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
20 Gawu la, Yehowa wò Mawu la aɖo nudzodzoe teamewo ɖe wo dome va se ɖe esime ame siwo tsi agbe, eye woɣla wo ɖokuiwo la hã nàtsrɔ̃.
Moreover the LORD your God will send the hornet among them until those who are left and hide themselves from you perish.
21 “Mègavɔ̃ dukɔ mawo o, elabena Yehowa, wò Mawu la le mia dome; Mawu ŋusẽtɔ kple ŋɔdzitɔ wònye.
You shall not be scared of them; for the LORD your God is in your midst, a great and awesome God.
22 Yehowa, wò Mawu la maɖe mɔ be miaɖe wo katã ɖa zi ɖeka o, ne menye nenema o la, lã wɔadãwo adzi asɔ gbɔ aɖe to ɖe wò.
The LORD your God will cast out those nations before you by little and little: you may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.
23 Ke Yehowa, wò Mawu la atsɔ wo ade asi na wò, ana woatɔtɔ va se ɖe esime woatsrɔ̃.
But the LORD your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they be destroyed.
24 Mawu atsɔ woƒe fiawo ade asi na wò, eye nàtutu woƒe ŋkɔwo ɖa le anyigba la ŋkume. Wo dometɔ aɖeke mate ŋu atsi tsitre ɖe ŋuwò o. Ke boŋ àtsrɔ̃ wo.
He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name to perish from under the sky: no man shall be able to stand before you, until you have destroyed them.
25 Tɔ dzo woƒe legbawo, eye wo ŋu klosalo alo sika megabiã ŋu na wò o, eye mègatsɔ wo na ɖokuiwò o, elabena ŋunyɔnue wonye na Yehowa, wò Mawu la.
You shall burn the engraved images of their gods with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to the LORD your God.
26 Mègatsɔ ŋunyɔnu aɖeke va aƒewò me o, ne menye nenema o la, wò hã àzu busunu si woɖo anyi na tsɔtsrɔ̃. Tsri wo vevie, eye woanyɔ ŋu na wò elabena busunuwoe wonye.
You shall not bring an abomination into your house, and become a devoted thing like it. You shall utterly detest it, and you shall utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.
